Yeah. I like having a book w/ me. It gives me something to do if I have idle time (i.e. riding bus, before class, waiting for someone, etc.). I'm currently carrying the articles book because I loathe reading it [poorly written] & I have quite a few pages to cover before the exam on Wed.

12/9/2007 5:36:24 AM

but why 2 calculators?

i carry a small pocketbook, i don't wear makeup, and my hair isn't long enough to need a brush or comb or clips. if women's pants had pockets big enough to actually put things in, i probably wouldn't carry a bag.

my bag, except it's green:

Got the TI-89 first back at the beginning of HS.
AP Stat teacher taught on the TI-83+, so it has all of my nifty analysis programs.
Plus, it's just faster & easier to use for any/all statistical calculations IMO.
However- I despise using the 83+ for anything more than Stat...
The 83+ is just a royal pain in the ass after being accustomed to the 89's superiority.

" TINY SEWING KIT"

12/9/2007 10:51:21 AM

Some girl left her purse outside of a party last night. datman was about to take a shit in it before we left. He didn't have to shit at the time, and no one else did either.

12/9/2007 11:17:31 AM

This should be fun. Let me get to digging...


Two papers from work about quality score incentives for December
printout from work of my (incorrect) schedule.
cute polka dotted wallet I just got for five bucks from American Eagle
checkbook
Small pouch containing health and beauty items: (one new contact lens, contact lens case, contact lens solution, 2 contact lens rewetting drops, mirror, hand sanitizer, miniature tube of toothpaste, sinus pills, 3 chapsticks, one lip gloss, mirror, moisturizer, mini deodorant, ibuprofen pills)
A cup of Country Berry flavored Mott's Healthy Harvest (no sugar added) applesauce
a 75% full bottle of water
A notepad from the Days Inn in Wilmington that I write customer notes on at work and tear off sheets to wad up and throw at coworkers
An envelope from my school with registration info for the Spring 08 semester (registration was a month ago!)
A book (Girls in Pants: The Third Summer of the Sisterhood), being bookmarked with the sheet of paper that I have all ten or so of the passwords I need for work on it
Contact call matrix for work
A fortune cookie fortune (A fair face may fade, but a beautiful soul lasts forever.)
A half full bag of Hall's cough drops
2 pairs of sunglasses
A post it note with my phone login and password for work
A coupon for the South Beach diet wrap kits that I eat for lunch at work on Saturdays
2 foam earpieces for work
More coupons for various products that either my dog or I use
keys
A hair tie
brown eyeliner that I used to draw freckles on Halloween
A mechanical pencil
A total of 7 pens (one that was a party favor from my friends wedding with their names and the date on it, one stolen from a local mexican restaurant, 2 from the Days Inn in Wilmington, 1 Napoleon Dynamite pen, 2 nondescript)


That was fun. I haven't read the thread but I bet mine was the most random assortment of crap.

what good do your spare keys do if they are in the same place as your other keys. What are you gonna do if someone steals your purse.

12/9/2007 11:22:27 AM

^ I've seen people carry less in RPG vidja games.

12/9/2007 11:24:09 AM

My car key is seperate from my other keys. So I have a seperate spare key that will only unlock my car incase I ever lock my keys in my car. I also have a nack for losing my keys that I use on a regular occasion so I like to keep spare ones deep down in my purse that I will know are there in case I can't find my regular keys.

i'm a minimalist when it comes to shit in my purse.

12/9/2007 11:28:18 AM

why the hell do you carry around vitamins all day?

12/9/2007 11:28:37 AM

so I'll remember to take them....I'm very scatter brained, so that way during the day when I open my purse for something and I have a drink with me I'll remember to take them. I know a lot of chicks that do that

12/9/2007 11:30:14 AM

No one can top my eclectic mess.

12/9/2007 12:21:01 PM

12/9/2007 12:25:40 PM

12/9/2007 12:44:16 PM

^I wouldn't say that lotion in a purse is a primping thing especially during winter. People get really dry hands during winter and lotion comes as a relief to some.

I'm not even really sure why I have that in there, because I rarely even wear deodorant.

I think it was for an overnight trip this summer.
